I love to do reviews and try new colors. I'm still learning and growing, and I am excited to have others on this journey with me. Feel free to explore!

Well hey friends! As some of you have noticed, there have been changes and additions to the Aly's Dream Polish line. Hopefully this will clear everything up and help you know what is what.Violet Red and Deep Plum have been retired, simply because of pigmentation problems. Because it is so difficult to perfectly replicate an old formula with a new pigment, it is safer to retire the color. There will be new similar shades to replace them in the collection, and (as far as I know) the new colors will be offered as replacement to those who have morphed versions of the original polishes first.If you have any questions for me, ask in the comment section below.

Well howdy, Readers.I am sorry this post took me so dang long to do. Between work and everyday life, you know how it goes. I hope this post clears up any real questions you may have, if not, leave your inquiry in the comment section below :)

These colors really need a good comparison to other colors in other brands too, but for the sake of time and limited number of fingers, I just did Aly's for you today. I hope you'll forgive me!

All are no base or top coat, as is my M.O.New formula Tiffanytea is two coats, old formula Tiffanytea is three, Tiffany's Revenge and Powder Blue are two each.

You most likely have the old formula if you bought it before Aly was really sick and the store went on a long hiatus. You most likely have the new formula if you bought it after the store re-opened and started doing week-long pre-orders.

The old formula is more sheer with more holo, new formula is more opaque with less holo.All pictures have the shades in this order:Pinky: New TiffanyteaRing: Old TiffanyteaMiddle: Tiffany's RevengeIndex: Powder Blue

I didn't caption every photo to keep them from being busy, and to save time so I could have this post ready for everyone a lot sooner :)

I don't know if you all are ready for this!
Here comes my second favorite Aly's color of all time!
You ready?!

I present to you:TIFFANY'S REVENGE.

It may look more green in these pictures, but it's actually a STUNNING aqua, like Tiffanytea's sister.
HOT sister. From the Holographic Euphoria collection.
I'm telling you all, you need this.
NEED THIS.

As some of you saw leaked pictures, you might already know what is coming!
One of Aly's new colors, SPICY SRIRACHA.
As the name denotes, this color is hot stuff!
You ready for this?!!

I present Spicy Sriracha, a warm, bright red. A neon red, if you will. Although there is holo pigment, as with most reds, the rainbow spectrum is masked, but the sparkle is there!!
And this baby was a one-coater on me. Muy caliente.

BONUS: Some of you may have found an Aly's Easter egg in the last restock. I have swatches for those of you who didn't find it or get it and would like to see!

It's my favorite time! An Aly's restock & pre-order (lasting a week) could be any moment! So, I have more Aly's swatches for you!! Keep in mind this is the second post of multiple reviews and swatches today, so be sure to keep an eye out on my Facebook page, Pinterest, and other media for pictures and posts throughout the day!!

This particular post is for pictures of colors where I haven't seen very many swatches.All swatches are two coats, no base or top. The formula is A+, and fast drying, as Aly's always are :)

It is easy to obtain the right amount on the brush and apply it to the nail.Wear: A rating of 5 usually means that the polish does not require a base or top coat to last multiple days without chipping or wearing at the tips.Removal: A rating of 5 usually means the polish can be removed easily in a matter of seconds with just a cotton ball and some non-acetone polish.
